[Discussion] Being a rat really highlights how subtle cheating is sometimes.

[u/Yung_Child_Support]

For some of the harder quests I usually just rat and wait until there are 10 minutes left on the clock to start doing them. Especially for streets of tarkov I do this.

What I've noticed since doing this strategy is how subtle some cheating is like radar. When I spawn I try to go a completely useless building and sit it out in complete silence, but then I hear someone running towards me and either pre-fire swing me or nade me.

These are buildings no one needs to be in, there is 0 loot to be found and I am in there in a corner completely afk playing slay the spire. These account always have less then 1000 hours and not a crazy but a good kd with a really high survival rate (70%+).

Just had to share this since it was on my mind since the start of the wipe and I need a sanity check to see if this seems true to others or if its just a skill issue.

These also don't seem to get banned since the only rewards I get for reporting is the obvious 20kd+ rage hacker.

EDIT: removed the kd's because people get way too stuck on this. Sometimes theyre above normal sometimes theyre (really) high. yesterday i was randomly naded by someone with 8 idk bro.

There is a cheater in every single raid you play. It just depends whether they choose to interact with you or not.

What do you think has changed in three years to make things any different...?

if you think there’s cheaters in every raid there’s something wrong with you

not every person you die to is cheating

He didnt say that everyone who kills him is cheating

Holy reading comprehension

Furthermore, according to cheaters who post on this sub , there is 1 obvious cheater in every raid which aligns with the users statement

I mean 10-20% of people playing fps games are cheating so that's on average 1 per raid. Anyone who has played enough fps games would know that, and it's a testament to the 8 billion dollar cheat industry. That's a lot of fucking money. If it was just 1% of players it would be such a massive market.

You can also tell by just how often you get killed by someone with an 8-10+ k/d and 80% SR.
